Grapefruits Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 The government of Canada makes saying 'Thank You' illegal CBC Radio · December 22, 2018 Members of the House of Commons pose for a photo in the chamber before Question Period in the House of Commons Wednesday December 12, 2018 in Ottawa. Centre block is slated to close for renovations following the fall session. (Adrian Wyld/Canadian Press) The new initiative, which will forever change the way that Canadians express appreciation for each other, will make Canada more inclusive, says its staunchest proponent, Heather Tiffany Anderson. "Okay, no. I'm triggered," Anderson said after Pat Kelly thanked her for coming on the program. "You've affronted me with your thanks," she said. Anderson believes that the phrase 'Thank You' places too much emphasis on the singular accomplishes of an individual. So instead of saying, 'Thank You', Anderson and the new government initiative are asking that Canadians begin saying, 'Thanks All'. "I was born and it wasn't my idea," Anderson says. "It was the idea of my parents. And when you say 'Thank You' to me, you're kind of slapping them in the face." To find out what happens to the tongues of people found to be still saying 'Thank You', listen to the full story. https://www.cbc.ca/radio/thisisthat/the-live-improvised-and-last-episode-1.4957500/the-government-of-canada-makes-saying-thank-you-illegal-1.4957511?fbclid=IwAR1c-6915xkJUdDSv6FR0n5soxR8g0IaWUp9HrESwn8vWFYegJ5GsyJbRpA ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Triggered over a thank you?!?

smokes Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 I love this, now the Awards Shows can be a lot shorter instead of all the boring thank you speeches. "And the winner is..." "Thanks all!" (walks off stage) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhippy Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 My favorite part of this, is that no doubt there are dozens of facebook groups with profiles of people in crossing guard vests super pissed because Trudeau is doing this and we should all say thank you more!
